My Favorite Thanksgiving Dish

First of all, thanks to those of you who shared ideas for an ornament to make with Laci's kindergarten class. I think I will be doing the snowman hand print ornament that Tricia shared. Too cute! I'll take pictures so you can see them later when they're done.

Let me just say that I will be pictureless on my blog for the next few days. Our desk top computer is out of commission until our new video card gets here so I am using our notebook computer. William wouldn't like me to download all my pictures onto it because I can get a little crazy with the pictures. All that said, I would like to share with you my favorite Thanksgiving dish. I know it's not all about the food, but it's a pretty big part of Thanksgiving. My favorite dish to eat for Thanksgiving dinner is......drum roll...... sweet potato casserole! Oh it's so good! It's just not the same if I don't have this for Thanksgiving. I feel like I'm missing out. I will be making my casserole in a few days. I can taste it now. Yummy sweet potato, brown sugary, pecan goodness!You can find my recipe below. What's your favorite Thanksgiving dish? I don't really know why I want to know this, just curious. Take the poll on the side bar and we'll see which dish wins on Friday!
